If mail is spam-tagged by UCC's spamassassin or UCS's kaspersky
(has a "X-Spam-Status: Yes" header), then the mail
will be delivered to the mailbox ~/.ucc-spam .
The mailbox is also symlinked to by ~/mail/ucc-spam and
~/Mail/ucc-spam. (Hooray for differing unix conventions).

Nope, though it's included below.
